Cleaning & Care
DAILY CLEANING
1. Turn off and unplug the appliance.
2. Always allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.
3. Using the handle, remove the basket and discard the used coffee grounds and
paper filter.
4. Wash the carafe and the basket in hot, soapy water. Dry and replace. DO NOT
use abrasive brushes or pads, or harsh cleaning solutions. The carafe and basket
are also dishwasher safe.
5. Wipe the exterior of the coffee maker with a damp cloth.
6. Do not immerse any electrical appliance, its cord, or its plug, into water.
DESCALING
If the appliance is used in an area with hard water, we recommend descaling the
coffee maker occasionally. The clean indicator icon will show in the display
window when the coffee maker needs descaling. Use a commercial descaling
agent for coffee makers (follow the directions on the bottle), or use water and
vinegar as follows:
1. Fill the water tank with water to the 12-cup mark. Add 1–2 Tbsp. white vinegar.
2. DO NOT add coffee to the basket. Press ON/OFF to run a brew cycle.
3. When finished, discard the used water and repeat the procedure with fresh
water only.

Helpful Hints

This coffee maker is fitted with an anti-drip function, allowing you to
remove the carafe at any time, even when coffee is still dripping from the
filter. Take the carafe from the hotplate and pour the desired amount of
coffee. Replace the carafe on the hot plate and allow the remainder of the
coffee to brew.
Let the carafe cool before adding cold water to a warm carafe when brewing
multiple pots of coffee.
If using a finely ground coffee, you may see some residue at the bottom of the
carafe. Use a medium grind to avoid this.
Use freshly ground coffee for the best flavor.
• The snapping lid is a safety feature
